Well if you don't count actually being hit, then this is the closest recent one...I was coming up to a 4 way stop when I saw a SUV in my mirror. Usually at this intersection I move out into the lane from OL to establish myself heading into the stop. However, my spidey senses were tingling. There was something about the SUV that wasn't right so I stayed put. The SUV flew past me so close I could feel the heat off the car on my arm hairs. They then proceeded to blow the 4 way stop sign at full speed. Fortunately, two other vehicle at the 4 way also saw what was coming and didn't move or there would have been a pretty massive crash a few yards in front of me. For whatever reason the SUV driver was not paying attention and had I followed my normal process I'm fairly sure I would have been mowed down.
